New profile update 23.0 help(SOLVED)

[mich]

Hello,

When installing gentoo I did a mistake and needed to create my own profile: local:no-multilib-gnome (dev) *

cat /var/db/repos/local/profiles/profiles.desc:

amd64 no-multilib-gnome dev


/var/db/repos/local/profiles/no-multilib-gnome $ cat parent :

gentoo:default/linux/amd64/17.1/desktop/gnome
gentoo:arch/amd64/no-multilib

Now that I need to update the profile I was thinking if changing the line gentoo:default/linux/amd64/17.1/desktop/gnome to gentoo:default/linux/amd64/23.0/desktop/gnome is OK

or gentoo: default/linux/amd64/23.0/split-usr/desktop/gnome


I ask this because I have the two options in the profiles list. I don't know why in the documentation not appear the first one(default/linux/amd64/23.0/desktop/gnome). I'm using this doc:https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Toolchain/23.0_update_table

Thanks in advance,
Michel

mich,

I have also a combined profile (Plasma+No-Multilib) and had to select the correct profile names. It depends IF you have now a split-usr OR a merged-usr system.

I was on 17.1 with OpenRC and split-usr. So, yesterday when I did the upgrade to 23.0 profile I had to switch to:

mich,

All of the /17.1/ profiles are split-user unless they say /merged-user/ in the name.
The /23.0/ profiles are all /merged-user/ unless they say /split-user/ in the name.

For systemd users there are only /merged-user/ 23.0 profiles, so systemd users are compelled to do the user-merge before the profile change.

if you come from a split-usr you need to choose a split-usr profile. If you want to change this I suggest to it afterwards.
